My set has no coating on any of it. It is all exposed stainless steel. There may be different versions of it in coated and non-coated finnish.

Excuse me, mine is coated on the food side surfaces with non-stick coating which I prefer. The outside is not so it works on induction cook tops

For the Farberware Millennium Stainless Steel Nonstick 10-Piece Cookware Set, everything is coated inside... pots & skillets.

There is nothing on the product's box or in the instruction book that indicates exactly what the non-stick material is. It only says, "Coated with the world's most advanced non-stick technology." You may be able to find the answer by contacting the manufacturer at www.chefschoice.com. The company is actually Edgecraft Corporation in Avondale, PA, ph. 1-800-342-3255.

I'm sure they want you to purchase another skillet. :) I will not be ordering any since I have been reading up on Teflon coated cooking utensils.

All pieces are coated except this insert. The handles are not removable but they are not that burdensome to store for me. I really am enjoying using these pans. A few quick swipes when you hand wash them and there is no need to put them in the dishwasher. The test will be how durable they are. I haven't had mine but for a few months.

no coating, the wok is a true cast iron and pretty heavy in weight. Enjoy it like i do

No, it is not coated. It is stainless steel. It is, however, the most difficult to clean stainless steel I've ever own. When I use it to take a biscuit out of the pan, the butter from the biscuit really sticks; I have to scrub and scrub to get that butter off. I also think the spatula is too lightweight, and the angle of the lift-up "paddle" part never seems to be right to me.

the enamel coated skillets do not need to be seasoned, for obvious reasons, and as a result do not rust. additionally, food does not stick to the enamel as it sometimes does to the uncoated skillets. however, the cast iron skillet is more durable and will last much longer.

Most probably it is Teflon-the same stuff they use for any non-stick pans. If you don't like coating, you might like to look for carbon steel pans by De Buyer on Amazon..

It has no coating, but comes clean easily with "Barkeepers Friend". I just soak after use and it comes clean easily after dinner even if I accidently burn something.

Well, they are still non stick, just not Teflon but anodized. The surface does not scratch-even though they say you can use metal utensils, I do not and never put them in a dishwasher either. I have 2 older skillets that are Analon and their surfaces are still perfect and fabulous. I have an electric cooktop, so I mostly start on med-high to medium and adjust from there. They are the most fantastic set of pans I have ever owned, and I've owned bunches! If they are good enough for Top Chef, they are good enough for me! You will not be disappointed.

I ordered this pan because all the answers said that it was non-stick. The pan I received is all stainless steel, with no non-stick coating. I'll be returning it.

Sorry, I cannot tell if it is coated with Teflon. However, the surface is more porous than a regular pan and any coating seems to last longer than Teflon coated pans.

it is not a non-stick surface. You have to make sure you oil, pam, butter the pan well in order for items to not stick. It's a little learning curve if you haven't cooked like this before, but I love my SS skillets way more than the teflon coated skillets I've had in the past.

Fry pan is not non stick coated. I was disappointed in that part of it because I have an induction stove and have had many dishes stick to the pan, i.e. fried eggs

No, they are not coated with anything. In fact the pans have tiny micro-grooves left over from the milling process--which can make food stick more than if they'd been milled smoothly. BUT, you can get around this by using a metal scrubby pad to help scrape off residue. These pans are also a liability around the lids---the stackable lid knobs are hollow, so LACK adequate insulation--they can be very hot--to the point you can burn your fingers--if you fail to use a hot pad---and that's hard to do, because they are configured in ways that make them hard to grab with anything but fingers. ALSO, lids have sharp enough edges and slots on rims, that in process of cleaning them, one can get cut--be careful. I like glass lids, to see food as it cooks---metal edges on those are a good protective idea, but not the way these rims were made--these have a recessed space under the rims that collects cooking spatter, is hard to clean without shredding the washing sponge or fingers. The handles are also "hollow"---which might be great for stacking, but handling them can be awkward--many people may have trout; ie handling the pans just due to the configuration of the handles--especially anyone with any level of hand disability or impairment, such as arthritis. The pans DO stack--somewhat better than most other pans. The pans work great on Induction stove tops: the clue: a magnet can stick to the bottom of the pans; and they are flat on the bottom. You may also find many other pots and pans on the market, capable of same [magnet can stick to pay bottoms, bottoms are milled flat]. They are environmentally upscale for using recycled steel. You must decide if the up-sides outweighs the down-sides of these pans. They do have a great money-back guarantee, if you want to try them out.
